Thanks everybody, very insightful.
I will specifically have a look at the pgf-tikz-backend, sounds great!

Take a look at www.littlecms.com,
its' python bindings: https://launchpad.net/pylittlecms
and http://www.cazabon.com/pyCMS/ which seemingly has been built into PIL.

Hello everybody,
I would be also interested in how to produce CMYK graphics without
external fiddling.
We don't currently have any support -- and we're still struggling in
certain areas supporting RGBA consistently across the system.
I think this would take someone writing a MEP (as a preliminary study of
all of the changes that would be involved) and then shepherding it
through implementation.

While the RGB system is native to monitor devices, since they produce
light of certain colours, CMYK is the colour system of printer
materials etc. since they absorb the colours, but reflect those we
see. That means designs must be made in CMYK for pronter materials

I agree with Eric that what we need is a backend that support CMYK color
space.
But matplotlib may need to provide some framework for handling the color
profiles etc.

Hi all,
I need to produce figures with CMYK colours, preferably vector-based.
There are two old threads, one from November 2007 and one from August 2010,
regarding this topic:

Thanks a lot to all of you.
First of all, I have to say that I agree with Benjamin Root.
I'll try the tools some of you suggested (no problem in installing and
trying, as soon as I can ... but it's good to know that there is a way
to generate CMYK images using Python ... as I told it will be
Is it possible to export EPS images with the CMYK color scheme ?
There are several technical journals that require this format (for
example Geophysiscs, one of the most important geophysical journals,
The Leading Edge, and, I think, Geophysical Prospecting only to cite
some of them).

matplotlib does not have any built-in support for any color spaces other
than RGB. You would need to use an external tool (if such a thing
exists) to convert color spaces.

I think it will be useful to have cookbook instructions to perform

Meanwhile, is there anyone that can provide those instructions, please

This is starting to get off topic from matplotlib, but it is relevant to

When using ImageMagick to transform from to an EPS, your results will be
much improved by using the parameter -density 288. This increases the
resolution (and thus results in a much bigger

While not a full solution, I have been playing with a ps backend that
saves images (and only images) in CMYK color.
lcms is required for color transform.
